Oh My Soul

Oh my soul. My God to thee how should I explain all I can say I was in pain, and lost out in the rain. Oh my soul, God set me free he took from me my shame for all the things I did to others I've accepted all the blame Oh my soul, my eyes were blind to all the drugs I've done after all the drugs I've put in me I have to say I'm done Oh my soul, My God to thee, I meant to come home soon I wandered in the wild life I knew not what to do Oh my soul, My God to thee, I shall not stray again I'll go out to spread the word I'll tell them where I've been I'll bring those home who have been lost, for thee I'll do this service for those addicts I'll count the cost My soul My God to thee.

A great write Richard. I worked in rehab in UK for a while and saw the hurt in others and the tragedy that was their lives. I wrote 'Fools Day Out' for them. God Bless D.
